I just set up a Rust server and I do not see a server config file. I am not talking about a client config file, but a server config file. Garry's mod has one so I would assume with this game (and all of its options) that they would include one as well. Is there a generator for one, or could someone post theirs?
All you need to know should be here: [url]https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Rust_Dedicated_Server[/url]
There is actually no config by default. You have to create it manually.
Go into the main folder where RustDedicated.exe is and create a folder called "cfg". Then create a file called "server.cfg" in there.
Otherwise just put all the options into the starting parameters, which is what I do.
server.writecfg in RCON will create it. By default it doesn't have one, it just runs on default values.
I tried the command [I]server.writecfg[/I] in the server cmd window and it said config saved but I don't see it saved anywhere. I tried running it again after creating a "cfg" folder and creating a blank server.cfg file but nothing is changing that either. Also added [I]- cfg cfg/server.cfg[/I] to my startup batch file but that isn't creating the cfg either.
Can anyone post the contents of their current config file or explain why I'm unable to see the config file that was supposedly saved. I'm not sure how to use the RCON without setting up a password first in the config.
Man, [B]YOU [/B]have to put contents into the file....
Also, that command does NOT save things to the config file.
Just do what I said and the fill that in:
rcon.port 28016
rcon.ip 0.0.0.0
rcon.password "changeme"
If you are renting a gameserver, you might have to contact your host to get rcon enabled.

I am the server owner. I added the contents to my config file and I have my batch loading the -cfg cfg/server.cfg command when I run it to start the server.
When I hit F1 and type rcon.login changeme it returns Invalid command rcon.login changeme.
This is whats in my server.cfg
[I]rcon.ip my.server.ip
rcon.port 28015
rcon.password "changeme"[/I]
I tried with ip of 0.0.0.0 and 127.0.0.1 too. No matter what it keeps saying that its a invalid command. Is there something extra I'm missing? I just ran through the steamcmd app update to get the server files for Rust. Didn't add anything else, this is making it seem like some file is missing.
Also my server is not showing up in the list of community servers. Only way I can join is by using the client.connect ip:port command.
I noticed that its not displaying any server info when I hit ESC either.

It says "invalid command". Is it that hard to understand that this command does not exist? It was removed a while ago.
You have to use tools like Rusty for administration. Download here: [url]http://oxidemod.org/resources/rusty-server-rcon-administration-tool.53/[/url]
Also you can use command line parameters instead of a config. Speaking of them, -cfg does not exist and is not needed. The config /cfg/server.cfg will be automatically loaded if it exists.
Try:
[QUOTE]RustDedicated.exe -batchmode +server.port 28015 +server.maxplayers XX +server.worldsize 4000 +rcon.port 28016 +rcon.ip 0.0.0.0 +rcon.password "XXXX" +server.hostname "My Awesome Server | Test"
[/QUOTE]
Replace the XX at server.maxplayers with your number and the XXXX at rcon.password with your desired password.
Do [B]NOT[/B] change the 0.0.0.0 to your IP.
